in a transparent prison
like an innocent child
like a precious pearl dropped in a deep sea
like a swirling black hole lost in the universe
like someone using a telescope to see through my eyes
a fugitive running away from his soul
a pigeon carrying letters that gives people hope
a love letter sending love messages.
Like a sad poem written by a desperate poet,
like a swift wind that gives people the shivers
like the sun on a cloudy day,
a window full of decorations, a surveillance camera
watching over the hidden secrets
like a baby crying, begging for attention
like a diamond,
a sad song, like an old person
who has wisdom, like an unspoken promise
made between two lovers,
the green leaves when spring comes,
the stars that shine in the night sky,
the patient suffering from depression,
like the fire that brightens us
like a camera that takes good photos
like a basketball that goes into the hoop,
fulfilling the shooter's dreams, like a planet,
like an underwater world
like a dystopian society that sank into oblivion
like a shield protecting the soldier
like the stare I get when walking down the street
and sharing a moment with you in the crowd.
